" Spotify, Apple Music, Google Play Music, and Tidal have company \u2014 earlier this week, Amazon announced its own new streaming service, Amazon Music Unlimited. And it&amp;#039;s built to work hand-in-hand with Alexa.  &amp;quot;Customers are going to love Amazon Music&amp;#039;s all-new app for iOS, Android, and desktop,&amp;quot; said Jeff Bezos, founder and CEO of Amazon. &amp;quot;And if you want a sense of the future of voice-controlled music, go ahead and ask Alexa for a free Music Unlimited trial, and play around on your Echo. If you don&amp;#039;t know the name of a song but know a few lyrics, if you want to hear songs from a specific decade, or even if you&amp;#039;re looking for music to match your mood, just ask.&amp;quot; Current Amazon Prime members can subscribe for $8 a month or $80 per year. Users with Amazon Echo, Echo Dot, or Amazon Tap only pay $4 a month. Non-Prime users pay $10 per month. Both come with a 30-day trial. And coming soon will be a Family Plan for up to six family members, at $15 a month or $149 a year. Amazon also plans to roll out Amazon Music Unlimited in the UK, Germany, and Austria later this year. Amazon promises &amp;quot;tens of millions of songs,&amp;quot; ad-free. If you&amp;#039;re going somewhere where you won&amp;#039;t be able to stream, you&amp;#039;ll be able to download ahead of time for offline tunes. Plus, there&amp;#039;s an Amazon Music-exclusive feature called &amp;quot;Side-by-Side,&amp;quot; in which artists comment on their songs as they play. Current artists include The Chainsmokers, Jason Aldean, Lindsey Stirling, Norah Jones, OneRepublic, and Kongos, with more in the works. With Alexa, you&amp;#039;ll be able to ask for all sorts of music, at all levels of specificity, especially now with this massive catalog. Ask for an artist or a song or even just a lyric. Or tell Alexa you&amp;#039;re feeling down and need a peppy pick-me-up song. Or you&amp;#039;re having a nostalgic moment \u2014 just ask for &amp;quot;popular rock from the &amp;#039;90s.&amp;quot; You can even say something as generic as &amp;quot;play music,&amp;quot; and it&amp;#039;ll pick something personalized for you.
